Technology Conferences Merge Into One

January 8, 2004 | Read Time: 1 minute

Two popular technology meetings are being combined into the Nonprofit Technology Conference, which will be held March 25-27 in Philadelphia.

In 2003, the Nonprofit Technology Enterprise Network Roundup and the e-Philanthropy Conference were held consecutively at the same hotel in Oakland, Calif., with one day of overlap. But this year, the two meetings will be completely integrated.

The conference is sponsored by the Nonprofit Technology Enterprise Network, a national organization for individuals, charities, and businesses that provide technology assistance to nonprofit groups; Network for Good, an organization that runs an online-giving site; and United Way of America.

Mike McCurry, White House press secretary during the Clinton administration and chairman of Grassroots Enterprise, a company that provides online-activism technology, will speak about what charities can learn from the way the Internet has been used by the Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean.

The conference’s 42 sessions, which cover such topics as online fund raising, Web design, and technology training, will be designed to appeal to nonprofit managers and technology employees, as well as to technology-assistance providers.


Fees for the conference are $275 for members of the Nonprofit Technology Enterprise Network and $375 for nonmembers if paid by February 27. After that, members must pay $325 and nonmembers $425.
